156 * This method will not be called in normal use, however it may be
157 * called when probing existing modules and recording which extension
158 * points that this model is used for. This means we won't have to
159 * load and initialize this module unless its needed.
160 *
161 * If this function is not implemented by the module the module will
162 * always be loaded, initialized and then unloaded on application
163 * startup so that it can register its extension points during init.
164 *
165 * Note that a module need not actually implement all the extension
166 * points that g_io_module_query() returns, since the exact list of
167 * extension may depend on runtime issues. However all extension
168 * points actually implemented must be returned by g_io_module_query()
169 * (if defined).
170 *
171 * When installing a module that implements g_io_module_query() you must
172 * run gio-querymodules in order to build the cache files required for
173 * lazy loading.
174 *
175 * Since 2.56, this function should be named `g_io_<modulename>_query`, where
176 * `modulename` is the plugin’s filename with the `lib` or `libgio` prefix and
